the abyss means...

Norwegian lesson of the day: Reisefeber n. Travel fever; an innocuous psychological affliction. the special kind of mostly pleasurable restlessness and flutterings of the stomach experienced in the days, weeks or months before travelling. A more frustrating variant of reisefeber can be experienced in cases of "travel by association", when someone close to the afflicted person is travelling to either A. a place the afflicted person knows well or B. a place the afflicted person would really like to visit.

I have discovered that the feeling you get from knowing that you are about to travel to Bognor and Bury St. Edmunds does not fall under this category.

However, I suspect the trip I am planning after that will give me travel fever.

I am planning to go up to Glasgow in a couple of weeks. It will be the first time I have been in a part of the British Isles other than England. That is to say, I go abroad, sometimes, but I have never been to Scotland, Wales or Ireland...
